[xep-support] Embedding Helvetica BadFontDataExceptionBadFontDataException

[Elliotte Harold]

My printer insists on having all fonts embedded, even the standard ones. 
The only such font I'm using is Helvetica. However I keep getting errors 
like this:

chapter2.pdf:
      [java] [error] Cannot read font metric from 
file:/opt/xml/xep/fonts/Helvetica.ttf
      [java] [error] java.io.EOFException
      [java] Formatter initialization failed: 
com.renderx.fonts.BadFontDataException: Could not obtain font metric for 
font family 'Helvetica'
      [java] Java Result: 1

Any suggestions? I've tried every variation of Helvetica I can find, 
both TrueType and Postscript. However this is a random collection of 
"Helveticas" shipped with various operating systems and products over 
the last 15 or so years.

Any suggestions? Is there anything else I should be trying? At this 
point I'm thinking I might just substitute Arial.
